Major road works ahead

Dorset Highways contractor Eurovia Specialist Treatments is to treat large sections of ‘A’ roads, protecting them from water damage and keeping them in a good condition for longer.

Many of these roads have already had patching completed on them over the last 12 months – repairing any defects – in preparation for this surface dressing treatment.

Work will be carried out off-peak between 9am and 4pm, with most sites using two-way lights and convoy working, where a vehicle – travelling at 10mph – will lead drivers through the works area.

Work is extremely weather dependent and dates may be subject to change.
